odd Virginny" in Railroad Scuffle.

THE sTAUNTON COLORED MEN HOLD
THEIR OWN WITH GREAT CREDIT.
The contest between the Baltimore &
Ohio and the Pennsylvania railway COM
panles over the crossing of the latter's
track by the former at Philadelphia, came
to head last week in something of riot
in which large number of colored men
from Staunton and vicinity in the employ
of the B. & 0. were involved. Civil En-
gineer VIM. A. Pratt of the B. s. o., who
was visiting at the residence of his broth
er, Capt. g. Julian Pratt, near Waynes-
boro, left Monday morning for Baltimore
but received d telegram on the cars
stating that he was needed in Phil
adelphia at once. He went On there and
at O'Clock that night got together about
forty of his Virginia colored men and fifty
Italians and tore up the Pennsylvania
track each side Of the Il. & y. crossing,
so the Pennsylvania could not reach him
with their engines. Five of their engines
were ditched by distractions in trying it.
After laying the B. 81 o. frogs, he piled
ties and rails on them and pat his men on
top of the pile to keep the Pennsylvania
people from removing them. The Penn
sylvania hands, about $50 in number, at
tackled his men. The Italians fled but the
Virginians stood firm. Engineer Pratt
writes of them: II will always have faith in
my Virginia Negroes hereafter; they stuck
to me and there was no backing them
1c;,, ,%
old Virginny. and you can't skeer me-
and go right into the thickest when I
called on them. The Pennsylvania Rail
road men finally defeated US by getting
drag ropes to their engines and pulling our
frogs out from under us.''
The fighting was ended by large force
of police Interfering, and the two railroad
companies settled the matter the next day
between themselves.

i he made his income, the income also could
not be taxed without thereby paying a
double tax on one subject.
Mr.. Cochran moved that the income tax
| be fixed at 81. The State only made 1t
that.
Mr.. Craig replied that the State only
taxed real and personal property 40 cents,
but the city taxes it 81 rs, If as Mr.. Tams
had said, the income tax was not made easy
of collection, then this Council ought to ap-
point committee to confer with the Com
missioner of the Revenue and enforce it.
Mr.. Cochran withdrew his motion to Tx
! it at ST., and Mr.. Craig's motion to make
| it ST. ,25 was defeated by the following
, vote:
Ayes-Messrs. Bargamin. Butts, Coch-
ran, Craig and Oberdorfer-5.
| Noes-Messrs. Berkeley, CroWle, NC
| Quaide, Summerson, Tams and Teabo-6.

} Noes-Messrs Butts, Cochran. Craig,
McQuaide, Summerson, Bargamin and

: which was adopted by the following vote
Ayes-Messrs. Oberdorfer, Bargamin,
, Butts, Cochran, Craig, McQuaide and
Summerson-7.
Noes-Messrs. Berkeley. Crowle. Tams,
and Teabo-4.
NOT CHANGED.
It was explained that the rate on car
riages, hacks, &C., was not raised over
last year, and that the higher tax figure
that appeared in the new ordinance with
reference to them was mistake.
THE NEW WATER TAX REPEALED.
On motion of Mr.. Bargamn the section
of the new tax ordinance establishing a
new plan of water tax quitting a part on
property was repealed by unanimous
vote. Another plan will be reported.
aENER&l DEBATE.
In a general debate that followed, Mr..
Geo. P. Baker and Mr.. M. E. Miller made
some.remarks to show how unequally the
taxes operated on home merchants.
Mr.. q. M. McIlhany. Secretary Of the
StauHton Life Association, asked for in
formation as to the mode OF taxing that
company. which now paid the State 5000
and the city $50, and was still called on to
pay in addition a tax on its capital. He
wanted to know if the $50 tax was rightly
imposed, but could get no satisfactory in
formation on the subject from the Coun-
cilmen.
After readopting the tax bill as amend
ed, the Council adjourned.
